Who currently holds the record for most stunts by a living actor?

The first time a stunt double ever performed on film is believed to be in the iconic 1903 Western, The Great Train Robbery. Since then, brave stunt performers have put their bodies on the line, driving through explosions, jumping off of buildings, and putting on wigs — all so you can enjoy the latest Michael Bay movie while munching on 10 pounds of popcorn and a gallon of soda. Show a little respect in the future, would ya?
And you can't blame a movie production when they use stunt doubles — the name on the marquee is the moneymaker, and risking bodily injury to your star hardly seems worth it. Yet some actors prefer to perform stunts themselves, because I guess they think it makes things easier on the director and editors and such. Or, more likely, they are show-offs.
There are many actors out there known for doing their own stunts, but only one alive who has done more than anyone else. Who is it?

Correct Answer: Jackie Chan
The answer is: Jackie Chan. Jackie Chan holds two Guinness World Records. The first is for Most Credits In One Movie For The Same Person and the second is for Most Stunts By A Living Actor. Jackie has said, “Achieving these Guinness World Records titles is the recognition of all my life's work.” These stunts aren’t easy work on his body. Jackie Chan has broken his back, spine, and neck to earn this record.Source
